Leader No. 2 smiled when he heard Liu Meilan's words. As long as Liu Meilan was willing, he would have the coastal cities below come to find her. He couldn't miss this opportunity.

Thinking back to the recent meeting, the marine audit department mentioned the great achievements they've made in cultured pearls, which is a very good example.

When the leaders there met him, they showered him with compliments and praise. It was only then that the second leader realized that such a good way to get rich existed in his province, but it hadn't helped develop the impoverished cities within his province; instead, it had helped farmers in Hai Province get rich.

How can this be done?

No matter how well others do, that's their achievement. His only accomplishment is the development of his own region.

After arranging things, he hurriedly led his team to Shenzhen for inspection, with a focus on visiting Sifangdao Investment Group.

The area not only boasts abundant resources for pearl farming, but also offers other investment opportunities. These opportunities are not only highly profitable but also create numerous jobs.

Most importantly, they can not only make money domestically, but also earn substantial amounts of foreign exchange abroad. That's real skill and true competitiveness.

"Comrade Meilan, I thank you on behalf of the local people! I will send someone over later to humbly learn from your experience and help relocate more pearl farming and seafood farming! If your factory wants to build a branch, could you give priority to that area? There is a sufficient labor force, cheap land, and preferential policies there! Setting up a factory there will definitely make you money!"

In fact, Liu Meilan had considered this point.

The only problem is the distance, which makes management inconvenient. Furthermore, clan power is quite strong in Guangdong province, and this power is even stronger in more underdeveloped and remote areas.

While they may receive preferential policies when they invest, they also face interference from local powers.

However, Liu Meilan couldn't say in front of the leaders, "There's no problem with pearl farming. Our Seven White Pearl series and other skincare product series need a lot of pearls! As long as the local government provides enough support, this can be done! We will farm more and more pearls according to our development needs and lead more people to get rich."

The leaders understood: raising livestock was fine, but investing in a factory was out of the question.

Although it's impossible to complete them all, being able to fulfill one request is already quite good.

Liu Meilan led the leaders to inspect various key projects and received praise.

Two hours later, the leader left. Even though Liu Meilan warmly invited him to dinner, he declined.

I came here for work, but eating and drinking here would be a bad influence.

After seeing the leader off, Tang Xiaoyu remarked with emotion, "So that's why they were interested in pearl farming and seafood farming!"

Liu Yiwen hesitated, "Even if our market share in the skincare product line continues to expand, the amount of pearls we use is still limited! Currently, the amount of cultured pearls around Sifang Island, in the deep sea, in Hainan Province, and in western Guangdong is enormous. Can we consume so many pearls?"

Liu Meilan was confident. The research institute was directly in charge of her, so they would contact her immediately with the latest research results. Therefore, no one else knew that these pearls had other effects.

It's understandable that people have such concerns.

Liu Meilan said with a smile, "Ordinary pearls have a calming and soothing effect in traditional Chinese medicine. The pearls produced by the pearl oyster seedlings cultivated in our farm have an excellent calming and soothing effect! They can help people concentrate during the day and improve sleep quality at night! Therefore, the research institute has developed a pearl calming oral liquid and a pearl calming pill based on this effect."

Upon hearing this, Tang Xiaoyu quickly asked, "How effective is it?"

Liu Meilan pointed to the smile on her face, "Seeing how happy I am, you should be able to guess that it works very well. We're currently conducting experiments and preparing for approval from the drug regulatory authority. We have enough confidence to prove that our product is much better than those Western sleeping pills! The side effects are minimal, practically nonexistent! Even if there are some residues, they're like food residues that can be eliminated through metabolism!"

Tang Xiaoyu was taken aback. "The most advanced research results?"

Liu Meilan nodded, "Yes, it's the latest one. Of course, the raw materials aren't just pearls, there are other ingredients too! But it has far fewer side effects than existing sleeping pills. Such a good product should definitely be promoted vigorously. It can not only be sold in our local hospitals, but also exported overseas."

Liu Yiwen exclaimed excitedly, "For overseas sales, we'll probably only be able to sell the patents, right?"

"Prepared medicine!" Liu Meilan replied. "Now that we've joined the WTO, things that couldn't be sold before can be sold now. This stuff is good, and I hope the country recognizes its value. We'll make it well and then sell it to pharmaceutical companies or drug distributors. We'll need a steady stream of pearls then."

Liu Yiwen was pleased, saying, "Insomnia is more prevalent overseas than here. We need to start selecting reputable pharmaceutical companies now to better promote our sleeping pills."

Liu Meilan agreed, "Second brother, I'll leave this to you. Get these things done beforehand so that you can know yourself and your enemy when negotiating, and you'll be victorious in every battle."

"Okay, sure!" Liu Yiwen replied. "Don't worry, I can do it."

Ye Qiang exclaimed in surprise, "That's great! My dad has trouble sleeping, and honey helps, but his blood sugar is a bit high right now, so he can't drink too much honey. If this sleeping pill can be put into production, I'll definitely get it for my dad."

Liu Meilan had initially thought the people from western Guangdong would arrive some time later, but they arrived the very next day. It turned out they had received a call from their leader, number 2, and immediately set off, rushing over overnight.

After all, they didn't have the ability to come on their own. Now that the leaders have set up the framework, why aren't the subordinates taking the initiative? If they don't want to work here anymore, they'll just replace them!

The delegation came from three coastal cities, sending representatives to attract investment and oversee agriculture and aquaculture.

"Since you're already here, bring your people over. I'll show them around our seedling nursery and pearl oyster breeding facilities. Pearls are still being mined, so they can see the real thing."

Liu Yiwen agreed, "Okay, bring it over."

They were all from out of town, but fortunately they were cadres with official documents and Liu Yiwen's guarantee, so they were able to go to Sifang Island.

Director Wang asked in a low voice, "Do we need such strict checks when we go to the island?"

Liu Yiwen replied, "That's no ordinary island. There are troops on it, as well as high-level military research institutes, medical research institutes, and many military dependents..."

Everyone suddenly realized, "No wonder! Mr. Liu, our leader said that we can earn 30,000 yuan per mu, is that true?"

They couldn't believe what their boss said on the phone. It was more profitable than seafood farming!
